Discover this historical, elegant and romantic venue in South Devon
As the largest and most significant medieval manor house in the South-west, Dartington Hall is a wedding venue like no other. Nestled in the heart of Devon’s breathtaking countryside, this historic estate exudes grandeur, charm and timeless elegance – all set within 800 acres of idyllic private gardens and woodland near Totnes.
Say “I do” in the majestic 14th-century Great Hall, with its leaded windows, soaring oak hammer beams and deeply romantic atmosphere. Alternatively, opt for the Upper Gatehouse, overlooking the medieval courtyard, or choose the Private Garden, where you can exchange vows with breathtaking views over the Grade II listed formal gardens and rolling Devon countryside as your backdrop.
